Chapter 346 Exposed



Just at this moment, the light of the flashlight in Xie Wan's hand began to dim, and with a "sizzle", it went out.

It was pitch dark all around.

Xie Wan couldn't see clearly what fell on the ground, he just smelled a bloody smell.

Although there was no light, Xie Wan had sharp senses and could feel that there were many "creatures" around her besieging her.

Xie Wanyun used the Ghost Step and dodged quickly based on his hearing and sense.

At this time, she discovered that these things were actually flying in the air.

After her eyes gradually adjusted to the absolute darkness, she actually saw countless pairs of blood-red eyes.

Xie Wan had never encountered such a horrific scene in his life.

His heart tightened with fear, and Xie Wan felt a little short of oxygen. The gun couldn't hit him at all. If it weren't for Xie Wan's strange body movements, he would have been drowned by those countless pairs of "blood eyes".

She thought quickly and used the "Earth Escape Technique". She sank her body downwards, but was bounced back.

There was actually a steel plate underneath, so the Earth Escape Technique was ineffective.

While hiding, Xie Wan thought quickly, recalling the supernatural novels he had read before, and thought about whether there was anything that was not easy to find flaws in that could be used.

She wanted to find her flashlight in space.

Ever since Xie Qi taught her to use her mind to drive objects in space, she could freely grab objects in space as long as she thought about it.

However, this time, she summoned several times but failed to catch her flashlight. Then she remembered that when she helped Lou Qingyue change the fuse last night, she forgot to put her flashlight back into the space.

She tried every possible means to remedy her situation, so she grabbed a handful of glutinous rice and threw it into the air, but she didn't feel the pressure relieved.

Didn’t it say in those old novels that ghosts were afraid of glutinous rice?

Is it fake?

Xie Wan found a box of matches and lit it. However, the faint light from the matches did not have much effect in the deep darkness.

As soon as she moved, the match went out.

Only then did she remember that she still had a candle.

Xie Wan took out a bunch of candles and lit them.

The firelight grew brighter, finally breaking through the darkness. Only then did Xie Wan see clearly that what surrounded her were not ghosts at all, but a group of bats that were much larger than what she usually saw.

Bats are afraid of fire, so Xie Wan lit all the candles and placed them around himself. The entire basement was illuminated, and Xie Wan could see clearly his surroundings.

When did she fall into a cave?

Xie Wan became even more suspicious that there was a teleportation mechanism or formation in the basement of Bureau 749.

She stood in a circle of candles and thought. According to the time, Chu Ganlin should have discovered that she was missing long ago, and Chu Ganlin's colleagues should have arrived as well.

Could it be that they were held back by something and left her alone?

How could the 749th Bureau be so inefficient?

From the moment he stepped into the mountain today, Xie Wan had a weird feeling.

She always felt that some things didn't make sense.

Although she could now clearly see that there were other ways out beside the cave, Xie Wan did not rush in rashly. She started to sort out her thoughts since she entered the mountain, and the more she thought about it, the weirder it seemed to her.

She picked up the extinguished flashlight and began to disassemble it carefully.

After disassembling all the parts, she searched carefully and finally found a bug in an extremely secret location.

Xie Wan stood up angrily, raised two candles and jumped up.

Sure enough, as she expected, she saw a place on the top of the cave with a material that was different from other places.

That area was very smooth, like the one-way peephole mirror seen in later generations.

After Xie Wan fell back to the ground, he took out his pistol, pointed it at that place and threatened: "Brother Chu, if you don't come out, I will shoot!"

“Bang, bang, bang…”

The cave wall next to him suddenly moved, and light came in. Chu Ganlin stood at the entrance of the cave against the light, smiling awkwardly: "Xiao Xie, I'm sorry, you found out."

Xie Wan asked coldly, "You have been acting with me since we entered the mountain. Why?"

At this moment, Xie Wan suddenly felt uncomfortable in his ears. The bats that were still circling in the cave, as if stimulated by something, all stopped flying and hung back on the top of the cave.

If it weren't for the bright light from the candles that Xie Wandian had lit, it would have been impossible to discover that there were so many bats hiding here.

Chu Ganlin invited Xie Wan to go out first.

The lights outside came on.

When Xie Wan walked out of the cave, he saw an iron door with runes painted on it.

This means she didn't run very far.

But there was a mechanism here. A wall like a cave appeared out of nowhere behind her.

The iron gate opened, and a young man in military uniform smiled at Chu Ganlin: "Captain Chu, you don't want to play anymore? Haha, this time you cheated a little girl, isn't that immoral?"

Xie Wan glanced at the young man and remembered that this was the "dead" young man who was on duty outside the iron gate before.

She snorted coldly and asked, "Were you pretending to be dead just now?"

The young soldier pointed at Chu Ganlin and said, "You can go and settle the score with him. He was the one who asked me to pretend to be dead.

I thought you would be a big character who needed to perform such a big drama, but I didn’t expect you to be a girl!

But you are really brave and courageous!"

After saying that, the young soldier gave Xie Wan a thumbs up.

Back on the ground, a middle-aged man in a gray suit pouted at Chu Ganlin, but nodded and smiled at Xie Wan, stretched out his hand, and introduced himself: "My name is Mo Xiangshan, you can call me Lao Mo. Doctor Xie, welcome!

Although you haven't even finished the first part of the test we prepared for you, you are bold and careful, which is good. Keep up the hard work."

Xie Wan was puzzled. When did she take the exam for Bureau 749?

She suddenly realized that everything she had just experienced was a test prepared for her by Bureau 749.

Xie Wan couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine. Fortunately, she didn't show off her bravery and reveal her true colors.

Just as she was feeling scared, Director Mo asked her with great interest, "Doctor Xie, why did you bring sticky rice and candles with you?"

Xie Wan lied, “Didn’t you plan to go into the mountains and bring some glutinous rice for emergency, in case you run out of food?

The same goes for candles. I don’t have a flashlight, so I have to carry some candles with me so I don’t have to be afraid when walking at night.”

These two things are common items. Before Xie Wan took them out, he considered the issue of whether they would be exposed.

Chu Ganlin shook his head helplessly, led Xie Wan into a fairly tidy office, and poured her a cup of hot tea.

"Xiao Xie, you already guessed that this is actually a test without my explanation, right?"

Xie Wan said dissatisfiedly: “Brother Chu, you are more sinister than our Captain Chu.

I thought you were a better person than him, huh!

I misjudged you."

Chu Ganlin clasped his hands together and apologized again, "When we recruit people in Bureau 749, we always arrange all kinds of bizarre assessments.

Isn't there anything I can do about it?"
